Avalon was trying to be positive about the upcoming DADA lessons, but judging how poorly the last ones had gone, she had very low expectations. The strange setup and lighting of the Dueling Arena only confirmed her suspicions that today might be another dreadful class. Not wanting to disturb the Headmaster - he looked to be very deep in concentration - the Ravenclaw made her way into the room quietly. Due to the darkness, she didn't notice her housemate Ashley leaning against the wall, but Claudine and Heath, illuminated by the light from the window, received a nod in greeting.
